WIC

The logo for WIC, a nutrition services program, with a stylized apple design.

WIC is a supplemental nutrition program that provides services to pregnant women, mothers, infants and children(up to their 5th birthday) based on nutritional risk and income eligibility. The primary services provided are health screening, risk assessment, nutrition education/counseling, breastfeeding promotion and referrals to health care.

Supplemental food is provided at no cost to participants.  Missouri WIC offers healthy food choices that target specific essential nutrients often missing from participants’ diets, such as iron, calcium, protein, and vitamins A, C and D. To meet these needs, the WIC food package includes fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables, whole grains, milk and yogurt along with other nutritious foods.
